Some residents said the death toll may still rise.

BBC report indicated that many are still missing while search team intensified efforts.

“At least 141 people died when a pedestrian suspension bridge collapsed in India’s western state of Gujarat.

“A local official said most of those who had died were women, children or elderly. The bridge in Morbi had been reopened just a week ago after repairs.

“There was overcrowding on the bridge at the time as people celebrated the Diwali festival, officials said.

“The 230 metres, (754 feet) bridge on the Machchu river was built during British rule in the 19th Century.

“The death toll is expected to rise further”, BBC reports.

It was gathered that over 177 persons have been rescued.

Dead victims mostly children and women were said to be enjoying holiday during the Diwali festival celebration when the suspension bridge collapsed night fall around 18:40 India time, (13:10 GMT) on Sunday.

Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, has announced compensation for the families of the accident victims in Gujarat, his home state.

Videos posted online showed hundreds of persons clinged and fell onto the wreckage as emergency teams attempted to rescue them.

Some survivors successfully clinged and clambered up the bridge’s broken netting, while others managed to swim to the river banks.

A CCTV video made available online shows that, before the collapse, the suspension bridge was packed with people who were swaying, with many gripping or holding firmly the netting on its sides.

There is new update, that bridge was actually a big jhula, and people pay 17rs for jumping there, so people were doing expected thing by jumping and fault is of government that they did not provided life jackets and support ropes to people pic.twitter.com/pKoJ5OMvvJ

Looks like they didn't repair it or they repaired the wrong section

An under construction bridge had collapsed in Kolkata before Elections too. That was told to be a message from God. https://t.co/PV9NxMsouc

— Capt. Sanjay Tyagi (@sanjaytyagi) October 30, 2022

This was historical bridge which was built even before India's freedom it was renovated recently and opened just 4 days back than this happened the people behind its renovation are responsible for this disaster they should be prosecuted
